Creative Project Blog Post

Seeing as my paper and general project is about vlogging and charities, I thought that I would do something like do my own vlog. I'm not quite sure how I'm going to do that because I have a camera but I'm not sure if I have all of the necessary cables and things to do that, but I thought that would be a good idea for this project. I also thought that I could do my vlog about organ donation and the organization Donate Life because it is something that I'm close to. I guess I would have to get in contact with them and make sure that it was all right to do a vlog about their organization because I don't want to be in trouble with copyright or something like that.

I thought doing my own vlog about a charity would be a good, and very obvious, idea. I'll just have to read through the tutorials on how to upload my video to my computer and things like that, so I'll be able to have an all right vlog that hopefully won't get much scrutiny.

Skin

I decided to look at Skin for today. Once I clicked the link, I was initially shocked because there were tattoos but once I actually looked it over. It was really cool. It's a story told on skin. It really caught my attention because it is a very different way to tell a story. It's participatory and it's really amazing. It's also an interesting process to be involved in this. You have to send a letter to the organizer telling of your interest in the group and they will send you a letter back with a word that you have to get tattooed onto your body, then they will send you a letter with the complete story that you will be involved in. Once you get 'approved' you have to send in your verification forms, a close up or legible photo of the tattoo, and a photograph of the participant in which the tattoo cannot be seen. It sounds very interesting but I don't think I'd participate because I personally don't like needles, so getting a tattoo is out, but I could see if someone would want to participate because it is interesting and you would be part of something cool.

Two Five Three

When I first looked at 253, I was seriously confused. I didn't know that it was supposed to be one of those choose your own adventures stories. After looking at it and after figuring out it was a choose your own adventure thing, I actually really liked it. I used to love the choose your own adventure novels and that one was very interesting because it dealt with the London Tube system and it dealt with minutes until a crash. It wasn't your normal choose your own adventure novel but it was very interesting once you got the hang of it.
